Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Water deficit reduced dry matter accumulation, crop growth rate and relative growth rate.
- Intervention effect Limited irrigation yielded considerably less grain per unit area than well watering.
- Observation Barakat had the highest dry matter accumulation, crop growth rate, grain filling duration and grain yield.
- Observation Barakat was superior to Aquodolce and Saraziri under both irrigation conditions.
- Mechanism Barakat superiority was attributed to larger and more grains per plant.
- Observation The authors conclude that faba bean is sensitive to water deficit.
- Recommendation Sufficient water during vegetative and reproductive stages is recommended for satisfactory yield.
